Jeremiah Clarke - The Prince of Denmark's March (Lovely Rendition)

[trompewei]

who is the trumpet soloist?

[TheArchon1]

I do all my homework to music like this, it's so easy to concentrate to.

[AlexanderHersh]

The playing of the trumpet with its hauntingly beautiful and glorious music is excellently and flawlessly performed and the accompanying video interchanges with the portrayal of magnificent oil paintings of wedding scenes of the 17th and 18th Centuries of the Baroque period followed by the 19th Century of the Classical and Impressionist period. Absolutely charming and delightful!

[AlexanderHersh]

Hi, my name is Alexander Harold Hersh and I reside in Johannesburg, in the Republic of South Africa. The 'Prince of Denmark's March' or 'Trumpet Voluntary' was composed by the English Baroque composer, musician and church organist, Jeremiah Clarke in 1699. It is absolutely beautiful and exquisite, glorious and magnificent and is truly a masterpiece! It must be played to herald the glorious coming of Mashiach Ben David - Messiah, Son of David - on Har Zeitim - the Mount of Olives - in Jerusalem!!

[ERIKEPAIOS]

@AlexanderHersh thank you Alexander

[lease2coach1]

@AlexanderHersh "It must be played to herald the glorious coming of Mashiach Ben David - Messiah, Son of David - on Har Zeitim - the Mount of Olives - in Jerusalem!!"

Well, I hope we get to hear it before then, because there's no reason to think that day will ever come... ;)

----

In any case--and sorry if the question has already been asked below--who's the trumpet soloist?

[AlexanderHersh]

@lease2coach1 The great and glorious day of the coming of the Mashiach Ben David - Messiah, Son of David, who will appear on Har Zeitim - the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem in Israel will surely come to pass in the Lord God's own appointed time at the end of the ages, as surely as the sun appears and rises in the east every day! I and many others have an unshakable faith in God, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth!

[silharima]

Not only is the music lovely and beautifully performed, but the accompanying art is also delightful. I've thoroughly enjoyed viewing and listening to this video. Thank you!

[1Turdsandwich]

Watching this has really helped me as I am studying this for Grade 5 Cornet.

[eltickle123]

They played this at my graduation. Oh the memories :)

[alanabit]

A smaashing version. Thank-you!

[ParamoreFueled]

My school's orchestra played this at our concert last night :) It was amazing :)

[2kittenkisses]

[Pondou]

It doesn't come better than this.. almost :) Proud to be Danish when such lovely music by a Briton stirs your heart!

[FREEASTHESTARS]

@Pondou Amen to that! :D

[SligoFiona]

B.E.A..uuuuutiful!

[wesleyrocks1738]

Marvellous piece of music, we had it at our wedding in 1988 in Australia.....................­..finding a trumpeter was a bit of a trick! Thanks for posting.

[markusboyd3]

Tragic how this guy killed himself over love... Anyway, lovely piece.

[srhagerman1]

Love the painting of Tsar Nicholas II and Alexandra.

[47antony]

9 dislikes,why?

[SligoFiona]

[funkymonkey2811]

[Isi2O12]

One of the most beautiful pieces of music.

[nicclas223]

And Thank you for posting!!!!! Reminds me of Princess Diana of Wales marching down the aisle.

[Slater071]

Its very English

[horselips]

Music like THIS is how my ears get laid.

[DarkNaomi]

@horselips Your comment made me laugh, but it's so true. :D

[ManioKartWii]

I really needed it :D

[bjnboy]

"... the stuff of which fairy tales is made."

[unincorporated1]

The story below... Why did it have to happen to ME?!?!?! I was such an innocent boy, such a good boy... But the winds of change came calling... AND... Those winds??? Came out of my asshole in the way of epic farts... They changed my life forever... Read on...

[petersuerte2007]

Many thanks for putting this great music ON. Just beautiful !!!

[magpie4321]

This is by far the very best rendition that I have ever heard! Where can I get this on CD?

[cammacuk]

this is also the Corp march  of the Royal Army Chaplains Department

[rockerdriver]

Is this not the most beautiful composition in the world? This or the Messiah's "Halleluia" chorus!

[heaven281]

@rockerdriver both!!:) Halleluia is much more powerful though, because it speaks of Christ's lordship and majesty:)

[rockerdriver]

@heaven281 Ur absolutely right! The Halleluia chorus is 1st then this one:)

[AmericanEvita]

For 90's lovers, this great classical piece was played in the Chumbawumba song Tumbthumpin from their album, you hear a little of it toward the end. They were an alternative pop group in the late 90's. PS, I love classical and opera but I also love 80's and 90's pop having grown up in those decades

[yamman93]

i think the beatles took some of this and put it into "its all to much"

[hazu007]

Ive played this at a wedding today :)

[heaven281]

BEEEEEEEEEUUUUUUTIIIIIIIFUUUUU­UUUL!!!!!!! BRAVO BRAVO, SUPERB!! SUCH UPPER CLASS & ELEGANCE!! MARVELOUS!!!

[speculativus]

Wunderbar! Wonderful! Maravilhoso!

[davidomz]

beauitful piece of music, i had this as i walked down the aisle 9 years ago. Played on huge pipe organ in massive church, very stunning-the music lol!

[PhilipineMan]

Didn't they use this in Hamlet?

[organnut]

Magnificent recording of this well loved Trumpet Voluntary. Thanks for posting.

Best Regards,

Roy

[ViriathusVingathor]

Really majestic.

[catman13ger]

one of the most beautiful and majestic pieces of music ever!

thank you for posting it!

[AulicExclusiva]

I enjoyed this video very much, I love this music, and it was nice of you to include marriage scenes from the different faiths. I had to smile a little bit, though, at the pictures of princely Russian Orthodox weddings: in the Orthodox Church, no instrumental music of any kind is permitted: only choral music. :))

[GanarfGeorgie]

Lovely!

[TLSUk]

Anyone know where i can find this version of this piece, i haven't been able to find it anywhere?

[freacls]

i always think  about Princess Diana on her wedding when i hear thise

[PotOfMould]

Playing this for my grade 5 trumpet!

[dongisselbeck]

Mr Clarke shot himself in a cemetary after being rejected by a woman above his c.lass.

[jajwood]

@dongisselbeck To be accurate about Mr. Clarke, he did indeed hang himself after losing his coin toss. Want to know the rest of the story??? Ask and ye shall receive...

[roygbiv330]

i heard this many times.

[kotetsu131]

I think my favorite interpretation of this is the historically-informed English baroque one at Diana's wedding where you had an entire trumpet section playing it in two parts and also had Timpani! Such Power!

[judetheobscure2]

Does anyone know who the trumpet player is?

[jajwood]

@judetheobscure2 I can't be sure but it sounds like Maurice Murphy playing the trumpet. He has the same brilliance as Maurice Andre.

[judetheobscure2]

@jajwood Thanks jajwood ... off I go in search of some more Maurice Murphy.

[englishrose47]

Baroque rocks!

[englishrose47]

And someone (a German, I think) said England was a land without music!

[flaviopannacci]

strepitoso...

[sultan7]

Truly a master piece of beauty !

[47antony]

i agree 100%..........

[TheAaronmoses]

Do not stop tze Musik .... Aaron / Berlin ...

[rolandwj]

Denmark FTW!

[nster1994]

a lovely piece of music

[222mozart]

I agree with this interpretation.

(my father tooo... ; )

[ORIOVALDO]

Wonderful music remember Diana of Gales Cathedral Saint Paul.

[sintiow]

25 years ago my lovely bride walked into the church while this grand music piece was played......

[DairDubh]

As a former trumpet player, this, the Fanfare for the Common Man and the Rondeau de Mouret have very special places in my heart.

[LittleAlbania1]

pretty music.

[goblondie]

beautiful !!

[daledeloy]

Proud of my danish heritage =)!

[chkjns]

@daledeloy Also proud of my Danish heritage, only the 2nd in my family in 138 years who SPEAKS Danish! Been to Danmark 5 times visiting my 3rd cousins - how many Americans preserve family ties for that long?

People mock Danish taxes, yet Danmark has one of the highest standards of living in the world. They believe in human rigts & they LIVE family values daily, istead of just talking about them !

Danmark is an AMAZING place! I''ve seen Queen Margrethe twice, once from touching distance!

[TINGNIE]

Very wonderful music, continue your good job..God Bless.

[imsixftsix]

Thank you for posting this lovely piece of music!

[MagicMaker7]

You are quite welcome :)

[bannyloren100]

@MagicMaker7 allahuabkac

[magpie4321]

@imsixftsix I agree! this is almost liturgical!

[TheMamhowe]

Very dramatic!!

[Aquathorpe123]

how lovely!

[TheSecretPhantom]

It sounds great, but i dont really like this song

[DennoNr1]

stupid reaction. why do you listen then

[TheSecretPhantom]

I'm just saying. Don't get ticked off.

[russethlee]

So beautiful and majestic!

[Gbrltr]

"Good evening, I'm Alistair Cooke, and this is Masterpiece Theatre..." ;-)

[magpie4321]

Good one!

[Madd0g17]

@Gbrltr That's Rondeau, not Prince of Denmark

[TheWeirdNWonderful]

Lovely piece anyway!

Skunksukofficial My Space

[magpie4321]

You must be British! That's class hands down!

[MagicMaker7]

Actually I'm Mexican American :P

[TheWeirdNWonderful]

Yes we are proud !!

And are music lovers.

This is the most wonderful piece of music I have ever heard.

[magpie4321]

Howdy Gerry, This is an excellent piece, I agree. What are you proud of?

[magpie4321]

The best I've heard on the net!

Bravo for posting it!!!

[MagicMaker7]

Thank you so much! I'm very pleased you're contented :)

[magpie4321]

Did Purcell (we pronounce: Pur-cell) compose this or Jeremy Clarke

[MagicMaker7]

This piece was incorrectly attributed to Henry Purcell for many years. The so-called Purcell's Trumpet Voluntary was in fact written around 1700 by the British composer Jeremiah Clarke as the "Prince of Denmark's March".

[magpie4321]

Well, heavens you write like an English person.

Howdy from America. It is a great piece

[MagicMaker7]

Thank You :)

[zodiacie]

This is one of my favorite pieces of music

[magpie4321]

Why is this piece called "Prince of Denmark March"??

[jastus1]

magpie4321: Because Jeremiah Clarke originally wrote it in honour of George, Prince of Denmark, the consort of the then Princess, later Queen Anne of Great Britain

[magpie4321]

thank you jastus!

[Henrik334]

Because it's a song made for an old prince of Denmark back in the 1700's i think.

[jajwood]

@magpie4321 I for one am tired of Henry Purcell given credit for composing this piece. It was composed by Jeremiah Clarke around the year 1700. So let it be written and stop this nonsense about Purcell composing this. He did not.........

[magpie4321]

@jajwood Thank you for your patience :)

[ceval1000]

this is what classical music is all about - grace , beauty and elegance. all classical music will have to que behind this one.

[heyginny]

Lovely!!!!

[MagicMaker7]

It is Lovely Indeed :)

[poshby1]

this is why i love classical music

[47antony]

i agree i love classical music and this is one of the very best.

[836706]

This piece introduced me to classical music. My daughter is just 12 and I'm already thinking what her wedding march will look like. Truly beautiful.

[Marylandguineapigguy]

I commenetred before but I feel I must do so again - this rendition of "Trumpet Voluntary" is truly the most outstanding one I've found yet. Also, the photos and images in here are just gorgeous! This is my very most favorite piece of music and every time I watch this video I am moved in a way that few things truly touch me. It is truly a little slice of heaven!!

[MagicMaker7]

Marylandguineapigguy, you have touched my heart. That was very beautiful.

Your kind words have encouraged me greatly to produce more renditions of wonderful classical music. It's a pity I haven't post any new videos lately since I've been very busy with college. But don't lose faith. I'm still willing to post more great recordings of the greatest classical pieces ever composed. My purpose is to bring joy to this dreary existence.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart :)

[aznjdragonx]

Such an outstanding rendition of this wonderful classic... I would say that its meaning is greater than just that of a wedding march... Thank you for sharing this piece Magic Maker!

[kpsicologo]

Hello, I am a musician from Brazil and I want to congratulate you for the beaty of your trumpet. I play the saxophone and the bagpipes. See you!

[WeHoFur]

Thank you!

[MagicMaker7]

You're welcome! :)

[cofee2cream]

Beautiful just beautiful.thanx

[MagicMaker7]

You are most certainly welcome!

I really appreciate your kind words :)

[Marylandguineapigguy]

What an awesome rendition of this, my favorite piece of music!!!

[MagicMaker7]

Why....THANK YOU :)

And just to let you know, I'm still planning to post more high quality recordings of classical music. I'll post them as soon as I find beautiful paintings that go with my vision of the selected piece.

[marksparky22]

great version

[Iolamusica]

Can someone please put up Jeremiah Clarke's Evening Hymn?
